Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - The April 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico is now being characterized as the largest spill to have occurred in U.S. waters. As efforts to contain the current spill proceed, the likely scale of clean-up costs and third-party damages has prompted congressional review of clean-up and damage compensation mechanisms, as well as of ways to facilitate future oil spill prevention, response, and recovery. A key element is the role of insurance in ensuring that costs of spills can be financed, while at the same time enabling the continued effective and responsible functioning of offshore energy exploration and production, as well as protecting related economic interests.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. On October 29, 2012, Hurricane Sandy struck the East Coast region, causing intense winds, high rainfall, waves, and storm surge, as well as economic disruptions in states throughout the Northeast and the mid-Atlantic region. Communities in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut were particularly hard hit. The devastating floods exposed vulnerabilities in the region's public transportation and infrastructure and underscores the nation's growing exposure to coastal hazards. The full economic cost of Sandy will not be known for years, but current preliminary estimates of physical property damage, not including flood losses likely to be paid under the government's National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), range from $30 billion to $55 billion, of which about $16 billion to $22 billion will be privately insured losses. Sandy is expected to require substantial federal disaster recovery assistance, including tens of billions for flood and hurricane protection and coastal restoration. Given the geographic scope of heavily flooded areas and residential take-up rates (number of flood policies divided by total number of households) in affected coastal communities that participate in the NFIP, government payouts under the NFIP are estimated to be from $12 billion to $15 billion in flood claims. This amount exceeds the $4 billion in cash and remaining borrowing authority from the Treasury Department. The Obama Administration has announced it will ask Congress to raise the NFIP borrowing authority to $25 billion, or $4.025 billion over its current borrowing authority. But some experts have suggested a $30 billion borrowing cap would be needed to cover even higher projected losses. Emergency supplemental spending on disaster assistance comes at a time when Congress is considering spending cuts and tax increases to address the nation's fiscal debt. In the wake of disaster clean-up and recovery along much of the East Coast region, policymakers, local officials, and other stakeholder groups have expressed a range of flood management concerns facing the NFIP. These include (1) escalating spending on federal emergency supplemental appropriations for disaster relief assistance; (2) uncertainty surrounding the NFIP's ability to reduce the nation's growing exposure to flood losses; (3) rising population growth and economic development in coastal watershed counties or floodplains areas exposed to hurricane induced coastal floods; (4) persistently low insurance participation (take-up rates) in the NFIP; and (5) financing the cost of rebuilding communities stronger, more resilient. On July 6, 2012, President Obama signed into law the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012, P.L. 112-141, that reauthorized the NFIP through September 30, 2017, and made a number of reforms to strengthen the future financial solvency and administrative efficiency of the program by raising historically low premiums and reducing homeowners' incentives for rebuilding in flood risk zones. However, several post-reform issues of contention remain for congressional consideration: revisions in the analysis and mapping of non-accredited levees; actuarial soundness, program solvency, and affordability; debt forgiveness; an integrated watershed flood risk assessment framework; and expansion of the private-sector role in flood risk. This publication provides an analysis of flood risk management, summarizes major challenges facing the NFIP, and outlines key reforms in the recently enacted Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012. The publication also identifies and presents some key remaining flood management issues for congressional considerations, and it concludes with a discussion of relevant policy options for the future financial management of flood hazards in the United States.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In Monopoly Capitalism: The Corporate Takeover of Government and Its Toll on Democracy, Rawle Oliver King presents a compelling interdisciplinary critique of the deep entrenchment of corporate power within American government structures. Drawing on foundational theories from Paul Baran and Paul Sweezy, King examines how a mature capitalist economy has transitioned from market regulation to capital accumulation, often to the detriment of the public.With over 30 years of experience as an economic policy analyst and regulatory economist-28 of which were spent at the Congressional Research Service, Library of Congress-King writes with authority, clarity, and insight. His professional background includes having managed significant advisory and regulatory reforms across national crises, including the 2008 financial collapse and the COVID-19 pandemic's financial and housing fallout. His work has influenced congressional efforts tied to the National Flood Insurance Program, the Federal Crop Insurance Program, and Disaster Risk Financing including long-term global flood insurance models.This extensive body of work in Monopoly Capitalism sheds sharp analysis and various spectra, including deregulation, financialization, environmental degradation, and democratic erosion. The book pierces deeply into how corporate dominance distorts public purpose, disfigures fairness, and reshapes democracy into economic oligarchy. King's examination of financial capitalism and the commodification of government reveals how markets continue to seize control of social welfare obligations and basic rights.More than an argument, this book serves as a powerful call to reclaim the public good. Essential for scholars, political analysts, policymakers, and critically minded citizens, Monopoly Capital(ism) dissects the governing realities of late-stage capitalism and its corporate influence transforming governance beyond profit.
